Exercise 11

I will actually remember to check the SCIS OPAC first this time!!!

Give the appropriate phrase headings for works on the following topics

a. Italians in Australia: Italians in Australia (94 examples in SCIS OPAC)
b. Taking photographs of birds: Photography of birds (3 examples in SCIS OPAC) - reverted to using SCISSHL to work out subject heading as could not find it using the OPAC, then searched what I thought it would be with results.
c. The women of New Zealand: Women in New Zealand (once again used SCISSHL to work out what it would be: "The adjectival form for a national* or ethnic* group may be added as needed, e.g. Women, Jewish. See also phrase headings in the form Women in [country], e.g. Women in Australia." I was confused because I did not remember that we were looking for a "phrase heading")
